The compound is first recorded in 1617 in the sense of "a small book designed to be carried in a pocket.”It is only recently that such books have looked like the paperbound books we are familiar with;these early paperbacks were bound like any book but were smaller in size.The next recorded use ofpocketbook (1685) is again for a book designed to fit in the pocket but this time used for notes or memoranda.The same word was then applied to a case that was shaped like a bookand in which money or papers could be kept.Finally, the wordpocketbook was transferred to yet another container for keeping things, a purse or handbag,rarely fitting in the pocketand not necessarily shaped like a book.Pocketbook 一词的两种词义“钱夹,手袋”和“口袋大小的书”之间的关联通过一点历史知识予以澄清。 这一复合词在1617年被首次记录为“被设计放在口袋里携带的一本小书”的意思。只是到不久前这种书看上去才象我们所熟悉的纸质封皮的书籍;这些早期的纸皮书装订得除了大尺寸上小点之外与其它书都一样。Pocketbook (1685年)的下一个记录下来的用法又是指设计的以适合口袋大小的书, 但这次它却被用来做笔记或便笺。这一词后来又被用来指定形为本书一样的盒子,并且里面可以存放钱或纸张。最后,pocketbook 这个词又转指另一种存放物品的容纳物, 比如一只手袋或手提包,它很少会放得进口袋,形状也不一定象书。〔brochure〕A small booklet or pamphlet, often containing promotional material or product information.小册子:一种小书或册子,常包括推销材料或产品信息〔chapbook〕A small book or pamphlet containing poems, ballads, stories, or religious tracts.小册子:包含诗歌、歌谣、故事或宗教圣经诗歌的小书或小册子 |
